  • The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money. Margaret Thatcher As with the Christian religion, the worst advertisement for socialism is its adherents. George Orwell Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both. John F. Kennedy Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy. Mao Zedong Communism is like prohibition, it is a good idea, but it won't work. Will Rogers I have no concern with any economic criticisms of the communist system; I cannot inquire into whether the abolition of private property is expedient or advantageous. But I am able to recognize that the psychological premisses on which the system is based are an untenable illusion. In abolishing private property we deprive the human love of aggression of one of its instruments... but we have in no way altered the differences in power and influence which are misused by aggressiveness. Sigmund Freud One strength of the communist system of the East is that it has some of the character of a religion and inspires the emotions of a religion. Albert Einstein Socialism is like a dream. Sooner or later you wake up to reality. Winston Churchill The ''Communism'' of the English intellectual is something explicable enough. It is the patriotism of the deracinated. George Orwell No nation can tax itself into prosperity. John F. Kennedy Communism is a cow of many; well milked and badly fed. Spanish Proverb Communism is the opiate of the intellectuals [With] no cure except as a guillotine might be called a cure for dandruff. Clare Boothe Luce If there is ever a fascist takeover in America, it will come not in the form of storm troopers kicking down doors but with lawyers and social workers saying. "I'm from the government and I'm here to help." Jonah Goldberg, Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left from Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning Despite a voluminous and often fervent literature on "income distribution," the cold fact is that most income is not distributed: It is earned. Thomas Sowell
